Technical Information for System Engineers
Applications
Designed for indoor & outdoor back-
ground to mid-level SPL applications,
the RS600i includes a single-point
mounting system for rapid open-ceiling
installations with an optional SM6
bracket for surface-mount applications.
The broad dispersion pattern (45 Hz –
10 kHz, EASE documented) and high
sensitivity (90.5 dB 1W/1M) make the
RS600i speaker ideal for retail, restau-
rants, grocery stores, hotels, casinos,
fitness centers, conference rooms, big
box stores, museums, trade shows &
airports and other open-ceiling applica-
tions. For applications where additional
bass is required, SoundTube’s RS801i 8”
subwoofer provides bass down to 40 Hz.
BroadBeam
®
Wide
Dispersion Technology
More than 3 years in development,
SoundTube’s proprietary BroadBeam®
technology incorporates a high-fre-
quency waveguide mated to a 1” convex
aluminum tweeter. The BroadBeam®
high-frequency waveguide delivers a
consistent dispersion pattern across
the upper registers of the frequency
spectrum (up to 10 kHz, EASE docu-
mented). The result is an audio system
with fewer speakers, reduced power
needs, shorter installation time and cost
savings on shipping & labor.

Technical Information for System Engineers
from 45 Hz – 22 kHz (-10 dB, half space,
no external equalization). Measured sen-
sitivity (2.83 Volt input, 1 meter) shall be
at least 90.5 dB. The speaker shall have
a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms and be
available for 25, 70.7 & 100 Volt modes
with voice coil/8 Ohm direct. The fre-
quency-dividing network shall have a
crossover frequency of 3 kHz with slopes
of 12 dB per octave (2nd order) for both
low & high pass filters. Rated power
capacity shall be at least 90 Watts continu-
ous power (RMS) and conform to EIA-426-
B testing. Maximum continuous output at
1 meter shall be 110.5 dB.
The low-frequency transducer shall have
a polypropylene cone with butyl rubber sur-
round. The high-frequency transducer shall
be constructed of aluminum with a propri-
etary BroadBeam® waveguide.
Installation for the RS600i shall be by
aircraft cable affixed to the speaker chassis
via a carabiner. For seismic & safety
redundancy, a secondary aircraft cable
shall be included and attach to the speaker
chassis via #10 bolt. The external wiring
input connector shall be a 4-pin, 5 mm
Euroblock for 8 Ohm or distributed sys-
tems and shall accept from 10 – 22 gauge
wire. The system shall have a weather-
resistant boot covering all wire connectors.
The enclosure shall be constructed of
injection-molded, mineral-filled, glass- rein-
forced ABS. The grille shall be constructed of
iridite-plated, powder-coated steel for lasting
performance in the elements. Overall cabinet
dimensions shall be no more than 363.6 mm
(14.31 in) in height by 307.3 mm (12.10 in) in
diameter. The RS600i shall include hanging
hardware, Euroblock connector & weather-
resistant terminal boot.
The system shall be the SoundTube
RS600i with hanging hardware for both
low & high impedance applications.
